SUMMARY:Beyond Barbie
DESCRIPTION:Presented by the UCLA Film & Television Archive \nWhen: April 6 – June 8\nWhere: Billy Wilder Theater\, Hammer Museum \nFree | No advance reservations. Your seat will be assigned to you when you pick up your ticket at the box office. Seats are assigned on a first come\, first served basis. The box office opens one hour before the event. \nWriter Isabel Cristo describes the essence of girlhood as a “before time\,” untouched by the weighty choices of adulthood — marriage\, careers\, caretaking. Though often disrupted by reality\, girlhood remains a space of unfiltered potential\, free from feminism’s historical burdens. Cinema has long confined it to familiar narratives\, typically shaped by a girl’s longing for male validation. This series seeks to redefine coming-of-age narratives about girlhood by showcasing films made mostly by women filmmakers from across the globe whose work challenges conventions and is united in their shared focus on a girl’s desire to know and express herself. By foregrounding a protagonist’s self-discovery and agency\, these narratives insist that a girl’s psyche — no matter how wounded or raw — is worth exploring. Infused with rare\, aching empathy\, they illuminate feminine characters whose multi-dimensional stories have too often been absent from cinema. Through them\, girlhood emerges as complex\, vibrant and inherently cinematic. \nLearn more.

SUMMARY:Among Women Across Worlds: North Korea in Global Cold War
DESCRIPTION:Professor\, Suzy Kim\, Rutgers University\nTuesday\, April 22\, 2025\n4:00 PM (Pacific Time) \nBunche Hall\, Rm 10383 \nWhile social movements may appear to have receded in the 1950s with the rise of Cold War domesticity and McCarthyism (much like the upsurge of authoritarianisms today)\, the Korean War galvanized women to promote women’s rights in the context of the first global peace campaign during the Cold War. Recuperating the erasure of North Korean women from this movement\, this talk excavates buried histories of Cold War sutures to show how leftist women tried to bridge the Cold War divide through maternalist strategies. Socialist feminism in the context of a global peace movement facilitated a productive\nunderstanding of “difference” toward a transversal politics of solidarity. The talk weaves together the women’s press with photographs and archival film footage to contemplate their use in transnational movements of resistance and solidarity\, both then and now. \nSuzy Kim is a historian and teaches at Rutgers University in New Brunswick\, New Jersey. She is author of Everyday Life in the North Korean Revolution\, 1945-1950 published by Cornell University Press in 2013 and Among Women across Worlds: North Korea in the Global Cold War also published by Cornell in 2023. She is senior editor of positions: asia critique\, and serves on the editorial boards of the Journal of Korean Studies and Yŏsŏng kwa yŏksa [Women and History]\, the Journal of the Korean Association of Women’s History. As a public scholar\, she has been an advocate for social justice and peace in Korea as a founding member of Women Cross DMZ. \nLearn more

SUMMARY:UCLA Editor-in-Residence Public Events with Courtney Berger

Berger will offer guidance on how to conceptualize a scholarly book project\, put together a book proposal\, and make the most of the peer review process. She will also offer strategies for finding the right publisher and working with an acquisitions editor. This will be an informal workshop designed to help first-time authors navigate the publication process and think about the purpose and reach of their writing. There will be plenty of time for discussion\, so please bring your questions!\n\n\nPanel & Reception: Writing and Publishing as a Scholar-Activist\nIn this conversation\, Courtney Berger (Executive Editor at Duke University Press) and members from the UCLA community—Colby Lenz\, Juan Herrera\, Kian Goh\, Lee Ann Wang—will discuss the challenges and rewards of writing as both scholar and activist. We will address a range of questions that scholar-activists navigate in their work and in their writing. What does it mean to be a scholar-activist and how does it change the kind of writing you do? How do you negotiate the competing demands of activism and the university? How do you write in a way that will reach both scholarly and non-scholarly audiences? And how do you maintain ethical relations with the communities you work with while doing scholarly work?\n\nAbout the Editor-in-Residence \nCourtney Berger (she/they) is Executive Editor at Duke University Press. She joined the Press in 2003\, after receiving her Ph.D. in English from Johns Hopkins University. Courtney acquires books across the humanities and social sciences\, including American studies\, Native American and Indigenous studies\, Asian American studies\, queer\, trans\, and gender studies\, media and technology\, and environmental humanities. Berger seeks out books that are theoretically and politically engaged and that speak to a wide\, interdisciplinary audience. They have published books by many prominent scholars\, but also enjoy collaborating with first-time authors who are in the process of establishing their critical voice. \nFriendly Reminder: Seating is on a first come\, first served basis. Due to the high percentage of no-shows\, we do overbook our events. Therefore\, a reservation does not guarantee a seat\, so we suggest you arrive early. We appreciate your understanding and apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. \nCosponsored By: \nCSW|Barbra Streisand Center \nUCLA Social Sciences \nUCLA Humanities \nUCLA Herb Alpert School of Music \nUCLA Bixby Center to Advance Sexual and Reproductive Health Equity
